[Intramural diverticulosis of the esophagus (author's transl)].
The first case report of a patient with intramural diverticulosis was given in 1960 by Mendl et al. Since then at least 32 cases have been described. In this paper another case report is given, whose clinical symptomatology differs from most other cases described. The etiology and the pathogenetic significance of candidiasis in this disorder still remains unclear. Differential diagnosis and etiology are discussed.
